Shloka 112
सांख्ययोगकृतं तेन पउ्चरात्रानुशब्दितम् नारायणमुखोदगीतं नारदो5श्रावयत् पुन:
sāṅkhyayogakṛtaṃ tena pañcarātrānuśabditam | nārāyaṇamukhodgītaṃ nārado 'śrāvayat punaḥ ||
قال بهيشما: «ثم ألّف تعليماً قائماً على السانكيا واليوغا، فعُرِفَ فيما بعد باسم البانچاراطرا. ذلك المذهب—الذي أُنشد من فم نارايانا نفسه—عاد نارادا فتلاه من جديد ليَسمعه الآخرون.»

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes a dharmic model of authoritative teaching: a doctrine harmonizing Sāṅkhya (discriminative knowledge) and Yoga (disciplined practice) is identified as the Pañcarātra, presented as originating from Nārāyaṇa himself and preserved through Nārada’s oral transmission—linking right knowledge, right practice, and reliable lineage.
Within Bhīṣma’s instruction in the Śānti Parva, he notes that a Sāṅkhya–Yoga-based system was formulated and became known as Pañcarātra; he further states that this teaching was first spoken by Nārāyaṇa and later made known again when Nārada recited it for others.
